>Description:
While attempting to build gdb for a mips target, the make breaks with the following error;

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../../intl/libintl.a', needed by `run'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/GNU_Toolchain/builds/mips/sim/mips'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/GNU_Toolchain/builds/mips/sim'
make: *** [all-sim] Error 2

The '/cygdrive/c/GNU_Toolchain/builds/mips' directory is just my root build directory.

I have sucessfully built Binutils 2.15, GCC 3.4.3 and Newlib 1.12.0 using the same configuration options, but GDB fails.  The previous version of GDB works.
>How-To-Repeat:
On a Win2K Pro box with the most recent 'net' release of Cygwin running the build, configure the build using the following options,

./configure --target=mips --prefix=/cygdrive/c/mipstools \
--with-gnu-as \
--with-gnu-ld \
--with-stabs \
--enable-target-optspace \
--enable-shared \
--with-newlib

And them 'make all'
